To Whom It May Concern: I have created a package called "freeknotsplines" in R, and I need to make a few updates to it. I resubmitted the package, and received the following error message:
checking examples ... ERROR Running examples in ‘freeknotsplines-Ex.R’ failed The error most likely occurred in: > base::assign(".ptime", proc.time(), pos = "CheckExEnv") > ### Name: coef.freekt > ### Title: Compute Coefficients of B-Splines For Free-Knot Splines > ### Aliases: coef.freekt > ### Keywords: nonparametric regression smooth > > ### ** Examples > > x <- 0:30/30 > truey <- x*sin(10*x) > set.seed(10556) > y <- truey + rnorm(31, 0, 0.2) > xy.freekt <- freelsgen(x, y, degree = 2, numknot = 2, 555) > coef(xy.freekt) Error: $ operator not defined for this S4 class Execution halted This error occurs in one of the examples in the documentation. It is platform dependent, and does not occur on the machine I am using to create the package. freekt is a new class, which is intended to be a S3 class, not a S4 class. Here is the code for coef.freekt: coef.freekt <- function(object, ...) { xdat <- object@x ydat <- object@y optknot <- object@optknot ord <- object@degree + 1 lambda <- object@lambda fulloptknot <- c(rep(min(xdat), ord), optknot, rep(max(xdat), ord)) # includes endpoints Xmat <- splineDesign(fulloptknot, xdat, ord) if ((lambda == 0) | (length(optknot) == 0)) coef <- solve(t(Xmat)%*%Xmat, t(Xmat)%*%ydat) else { numknots <- length(optknot) Amat <- chgbasismat(fulloptknot, ord) Istar <- diag(c(rep(0, times = ord), rep(1, times = numknots))) coef <- solve(t(Xmat)%*%Xmat + lambda*t(Amat)%*%Istar%*%Amat, t(Xmat)%*%ydat) } return(coef) } Can someone please help me figure out what I am doing that is causing this error?
